An appalling proposal, cruel to wildlife. Using captive wildlife in pens to train hunting dogs sounds like something I would be reporting for animal cruelty so it’s unbelievable to me that it was ever legal. The pens are inhumane and unethical. Wildlife kept for the purpose of training hunting dogs is subjected to immense stress and suffering. Wildlife in Ontario doesn’t have significant rights or protections and the laws in place are sluggishly enforced so this proposal is a big step backwards. Why is it that the same institution that’s supposed to protect wild animals issues hunting licenses and considers proposals such as this one? It makes no sense.
